Joanna was born and bred in Edinburgh and moved out to East Lothian when she was the tender age of 15. She has three wonderful children, Finlay & Eilidh who are all grown-up and have fledged the nest, and Avalon (11). We have the pleasure of living with Zoe our much loved Flat-Coated Retriever, who's now 18 months old as well as our 5 hens.
Joanna continues to study canine communication techniques using audio visual aids, books and also gains practical experience on a daily basis. Prior to establishing Doggie Daycare, Joanna worked as a Registered Sick Children's Nurse in Edinburgh's Sick Children's Hospital where she worked for 16 years, 12 of them within the Intensive Care and High Dependency Units.

Services
We would love to know more about your doggie, so suggest that you arrange a 'meet & greet' interview to give us the chance to connect with you and your doggie and find out how best to meet your needs and discuss what we do in more detail. Please read our terms and conditionsI have read and accept Doggie Daycare's terms and conditions of service.
Your doggie will be collected in the morning and taken on a fantastic, physically challenging walk in our massive, fully enclosed (by a deer fence) woodland doggie park. We have exclusive use of this land and as it's fully enclosed, we don't meet any other doggies, horses, runners or traffic, making it the perfect place to run free and relax without the usual issues when out walking in public.
Your puppy is welcome to spend the day with us where she will be able to play, socialise and develop good doggie skills & manners. Depending on the breed and energy level of your puppy, they may not be taken out walking with the older dogs until their joints and bones are mature enough to cope. They'll get all the exercise they need while playing with the other dogs and the dog toys.

I cannot recommend Joanna enough. My cocker spaniel puppy Wilson loves spending time with all his doggie friends & humans!
He is now 5 months old, full of energy and naughtiness... I always know he is well cared for, all his puppy needs met and treated like one of the family. I honestly couldn't put him anywhere else.

Last month was the first time since we have Lucy, our rescue dog, that we had to leave her for 10 days and it was hard, we could leave her with friends but it was too much responsibility because she's never been really trained. We decided to pay a profesional and choose Joanna... we couldn't decided anything better! Not just that we were totally relax about how well she was and Joanna has to deal with me sending her texts, but since then it is easier to walk Lucy, she is not pulling all the time the lead and she is easier going with other dogs when she met them. Best money invested ever! But the
